My internet has been screwy past acouple of days. I've been trying to be a jedi and use the Force to heal my computer, but alas I am no Anakin and lack the technical talents to actually repair my own laptop...
Just recently, however, I threatened my laptop to pull the plug. I keep him plugged in all the time. I know it kills your battery, but I don't really care... cuz I keep him near outlets anyway. Well, I threatened to pull the plug.. and once the battery was dead, and if he didn't connect to the internet, I'd pop the battery out too to punish him.
I know this must sound borderline crazy.. talking to computers and making threats... but I do it all the time. I talk to my car Neo ... I actually miss him. I talk to the machines we use at work for inventories... I find that if I talk to it nicely it's more inclined to start working again.
Well... after pulling the plug... I watched the bars hoping to see at least two red bars indicating some kind of internet connection
Suddenly though, I realised that I was acting like the very condemning God I read about sometimes in the Bible. I didn't want God to be that. Since I'm a reflection of God, should I not act like It too?
I apologised to the computer and replugged him back in. I told him he could reconnect if he wanted to.. it was up to him... but I'd really appreciate it if he connected...
and I realised.. if that was God talking to US... humbly asking us to do what It wants.. then that is a Humble God.. I like humility.
Although, writing this blog, proving my humility to a computer may defeat the whole concept of it, right?
